I want to read Coming of Age in Samoa and Sex and Temperament in Three Primitive Societies

Oh yes the most exciting news!!! Right before I left I took all my rolls of film to get developed, but then had to leave BKK. But the lab sent it to me so I got a package in the mail with lots of film developed! Ahhh! I couldn't have been happier to touch film, and see these images I've been waiting weeks to see. The only thing is I still don't have a scanner. So to actually share, you and I both have to wait.
